Anne Marie successfully passed her Ph.D. candidacy exam at the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, Georgia Tech. Her PhD project involves discovery of marine natural products active against malaria and worm infection. We expect that her work will lead to new drug lead and wish her the very best. Congratulations again!

Kubanek lab is proud to announce that Emily Schwartz has been selected to receive a 2017National Science Foundation (NSF) Graduate Research Fellowship (GRF). NSF GRFPis one of the very competitive fellowship programs. It will fund her graduate studies for the next two years and more. She will be working on elucidating the chemosensory mechanism responsible for toxin production in marine algae. We look forward to Emily’s research findings and achievements in the years to come. Congratulations, Emily!

Our group published a review “Chemical ecology of marine plankton” in Natural Product Reports summarizing recent research in the chemical ecology of marine pelagic ecosystems. Congratulations Emily, Remy, Nazia and Julia!
